Yeah, I actually didn't care for the JC as much as the OG SC. (see what I did there?).

It's not a BAD vape... it delivers all it promises- milky, creamy chocolate with a bacco that's easily identifable as a close criminal relative, BUT...

I thought it lacked the richness, robustness, fullness... You know that beef fatty, savory, je ne cest qois.. that makes SC... well, SC? JC doesn't have THAT stuff.

Seems like it should taste overdone, but it doesn't really. Overall I think the flavor impact is even a little lighter than SC. It's still a good vape, but I prefer the original.

Are you still wearing that french scarf? :laugh:

You hit the nail on the head with this post.

Man, I'll bet that CWW is fantastic on the HH ! My mouth is watering thinking about it.

Peraspera is the Aurora and HH pied piper!


I don't know of anything easier than using a VW device with an Aurora paired with a good atty to get a very good quality, flavorful vape. It breaks my heart to see people struggling in their efforts to get decent flavor from Ahlusion juices out of a clearo. :(

Building coils has always been easy, peasy for me. Ironically, I still greatly prefer the HH.357s for the types of juices and the type of vape I personally prefer although I've never had trouble understanding why others prefer their rebuildable drippers. Even if someone decides to tackle rebuildables I think the HH.357 is worth having as a baseline reference point.

Coconut Macaroon is "not available" not sure why but I am waiting on it because it does sound so good

Coconut Macaroon hasn't been available for months! I keep forgetting to ask if it is still on the menu and incorrectly listed as unavailable.

*Raises hand* It's not coconut. There isn't any coconut in Sweet Surrender. That's the only ingredient that I am positive is not there because Wlad wrote it. Are you sure it is a sensitivity? This flavor can be harsh at first. I have to let it steep for about 3 months at 70PG before I can vape it or it irritates my throat.

I had a feeling you would raise your hand :) Just kidding since your comments are always appreciated.

Due to the enablers in this thread, and from trying a multitude of different Ahlusion flavors, and mostly for the good I might add I am unable to vape;

Sweet Surrender
Coco-Berry Cream
Shipwreck

So if it is not a Coconut sensitivity quite possibly it is some other flavoring. With less than 1/2 a Tank my chest feels like I just chain smoked a pack of Analogs.

I was tripping re Bananas Foster. Maybe I was having a moment or the previous flavor I was dripping didn't play well with BF. :unsure:

I tried a different RDA, 0.8 ohms, but with a variable voltage device. Didn't matter how low or high I went -- it was great. So I think you have plenty of time to vape this, Mozzer. :)

wow.. you have a VV that goes all the way down to 0.8? nice :) I'm finding BF doesn't play well with CWW - just a bounce, vaping one after the other. SC is fine, as is JC. So far, BF has legs for me. Love it just as much as when I first tried it. JC is flattening out a bit, as I acclimate to it. Still like it. I took it out with me this evening. I do get occasional criminal hints, even quite distinct ones, but not often.

I never got the hang of the .357, I started dripping on the IKV 801's, then switched to 510's and 306's before getting into rebuildables. I started rebuilding to save money... not sure that worked out so well:unsure:

I started rebuilding to understand how to get the ultimate taste from juices possible. I can build now to closely mimic the taste that IBT Tanks or iClear 30's give. Even better. Oh I got tanks but I drip because the flavor is much more pronounced, and the vapor production is better imo. And I can drip anything from 70 VG to 70 PG and still get plenty of flavor. Make any sense at all?

Still looking for something sweet that isn't TOO sweet; I need a change from my tart fruities. Suggestions please?
Try some of the teas. Any, but I like the blacks.
Actually, I suggest Yerba Mate.
I'm really enjoying this one today. It's sweet, but just slightly. It's light and subtle, but satisfying.

Just Criminal is better today. Just a day steeping in a smaller tank seems to have brought out the criminal more. The chocolate has already receded a bit. I quite like it. It will definitely be interesting to see how it progresses. I'm one who likes SC early on, as well as fully steeped, so I suppose it follows that I'm enjoying this one.

I got a 60ml bottle of their Pina Colada 90% VG/ 10% PG, 0 mg nicotine and extra sweetener. I put a loaded up a Magma RDA, with duel 26ga 3/32, 9 wrap coils working out to .53 ohms. I must say this particular juice really doesn't seem to need much steeping as the flavor is there. The last bottle I got some time back needed about a week but was 70 vg/ 30 pg and 6mg of nicotine and used in a Kayfun at 1.2 ohms. The current setup with the magma needless to say has much more taste than I expected but then the Magma is also new with first try.

I have a question for all Smooth Criminal and other non-aro tobacco fans. What is the best ratio of PG/VG, and is a slightly higher PG (ex.70PG/30VG) recommended over 50/50? Has anyone tried both and what's the difference? Opinions appreciated!

I've had a few tobaccos with the 30vg/70pg ratio. They tended to provide more throat hit than the same juices in 50vg/50pg. The flavor to me was not a night and day difference. I also have had the 40vg/60pg option via XPress liquid purchases. I didn't notice much difference between those and the 50vg/50pg option.

I have had several XPress non-aros, at 40/60 and I can't tell them apart from my usual 50/50

Yep. The higher PG also helps with wicking.

Now higher VG? :facepalm: Just read about my first Caramel Wild Wood experience, LOL.

I did enjoy Peachy Criminal in all the ratios I tried, though.

Hey guys, I have an active coupon that I need to use soon, and am looking for recommendations for new flavors. BnJ suggested Cafe Au Lait last time and it became a re-order. I'm looking for the same type of result. :)

I'm considering Tiramisu and perhaps one of the Tarte Tatins. Also, I'm not a fan of Boba Tea, but I wonder if some of the other teas might be right for me. Any suggestions would be welcome.

PS- Moz, the JC gets markedly better at the 2 month mark. The flavor deepens as it becomes more balanced. You should listen to BnJ more often. :D

:D :D :D. Would you like to join my....team? Mozzer won't mind. :laugh:

Hmm, you don't seem to be into the fruit vapes, so it is difficult for me to suggest a tea. The only one that I can think of is Boba Tea Coffee. I've not tried it, but a lot of people love it.

I will suggest the Berry Shangri-La Tea to anyone who listens, lol.

Have you tried Vanilla Black Tea?
